Corgi Registration

When purchasing any gas appliance from The Appliance Warehouse, you will be given the option to have the appliance professionally installed by one of our gas engineers. Before you order your product, there are a few things that you should be aware of regarding gas safety and the law:

You are legally obliged to ensure that any gas installation in your home is performed by a Corgi-registered gas engineer. You may be breaking the law if you neglect your responsibility in this area. It is also a requirement of the appliance manufacturer that it is installed legally and professionally and your manufacturer's guarantee may be invalidated by failing to ensure that your gas installer carries a current registration with Corgi. Always look for the logo and valid registration number.

The Appliance Warehouse is a Corgi-registered gas installer and will only ever use registered engineers in the installation of gas appliances. It is a legal requirement that any gas appliance that is installed in a domestic abode is installed in accordance with Health & Safety Executive (HSE) Directives in connection with domestic gas safety. In line with these directives, our gas work is continually monitored by Corgi, the national watchdog for gas safety in the United Kingdom, to ensure that our installers are operating in the safest and most professional manner possible.

We are legally required to inform Corgi when we have supplied and installed a gas appliance in a domestic abode. This procedure is called Corgi Notification and is listed as an optional extra when purchasing a gas appliance from this site. If you select the installation service for your gas appliance, we will register the gas installation with Corgi. Following the completion of the works, you are not required to take any further action, until you receive correspondence from Corgi. You will receive a safety certificate (called a Declaration of Safety) from CORGI after a gas appliance has been installed. Please keep this safe as it proves the appliance has been installed by a professional. It will also form an essential part of the Home Information Pack, a legal requirement in England and Wales. This came into force in 2007. Should you require any repairs under the terms of the manufacturer's guarantee, your service engineer may ask to see your Declaration of Safety prior to performing any repairs.

For more information about the introduction of the Home Information Pack visit the website for the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister. The Scottish Executive is introducing a similar initiative for householders in Scotland called “Single Survey” scheme, for further information visit www.scotland.gov.uk

Unregistered installers are dangerous, breaking the law and should be stopped. If you are aware of non-registered gas installers operating in your area, click here to report them to Corgi.
